The question has missing information.

The options are given below.

a.The equilibrium lies far to the right

b. The reaction will proceed very slowly

c. The reaction contains significant amounts of products and reactants at equilibrium.

d. The equilibrium lies far to the left

Answer : The correct answer is option c: The reaction contains significant amounts of products and reactants at equilibrium.

Explanation :

Option a is not correct because for equilibrium to lie far to the right, we need a large value of keq ( Keq >>> 1 ), but the keq value is small.

option b is also not correct because in order to predict the speed of the reaction, we need more information. The speed of the reaction cannot be predicted using Keq value.

Option d is not correct because for Keq to lie far to the left, it has to be very very small. ( Keq <<< 1)

The value of equilibrium constant is given as 4.24. This value is very near to 1.

Equilibrium constant for this reaction is calculated as

$Keq = \frac{[H_{2}] [CO_{2}]}{[H_{2}O][CO]}$

When Keq = 1, $[H_{2}] [CO_{2} ] = [CO] [H_{2}O]$

That means concentrations of products and reactants are equal.

Since the keq value for our reaction is very close to 1, we can say that , there are significant amounts of reactants and products at equilibrium.

Therefore option C is the correct option.

What is the pH of a 0.083 solution of HCI

quester [9]

Answer:

The pH is 1.08, being an acid pH

Explanation:

pH is a parameter used to measure the degree of acidity or alkalinity of a substance. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14. Values less than 7 indicate the acidity range and those greater than 7 indicate alkalinity or basicity. Value 7 is considered neutral. Mathematically, pH is the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of hydrogen or proton ions (H⁺) or hydronium ions (H₃O⁺).

pH= - log [H⁺]= - log [H₃O⁺]

A strong acid is an acid that completely dissociates into hydrogen ions and anions in solution. This implies that the initial concentration of acid is equal to the final concentration of H₃O⁺. This occurs with acid HCl.

So, pH is calculated as:

pH= - log (0.083)

pH= 1.08

<u><em>The pH is 1.08, being an acid pH</em></u>

Please Help, will give 30 points! The following data was collected when a reaction was performed experimentally in the laborator

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

9 moles of NaNO3.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

Al(NO3)3 + 3NaCl —> 3NaNO3 + AlCl3

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Al(NO3)3 and NaCl that reacted and the number of mole of NaNO3 produced from the balanced equation.

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Al(NO3)3 reacted with 3 moles of NaCl to produce 3 moles of NaNO3.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant.

The limiting reactant can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Al(NO3)3 reacted with 3 moles of NaCl.

Therefore, 4 moles of Al(NO3)3 will react with = (4 x 3)/1 = 12 moles of NaCl.

From the calculations made above, we can see that it will take a higher amount i.e 12 moles than what was given i.e 9 moles of NaCl to react completely with 4 moles of Al(NO3)3.

Therefore, NaCl is the limiting reactant and Al(NO3)3 is the excess reactant.

Finally, we shall determine the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced from the reaction.

In this case, the limiting reactant will be used as it will produce the maximum amount of NaNO3 since all of it is consumed by the reaction.

The limit reactant is NaCl and the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of NaCl reacted to produce 3 moles of NaNO3.

Therefore, 9 moles of NaCl will also react to produce 9 moles of NaNO3.

From the calculations made above, the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced is 9 moles

Draw one of the stereoisomers of the product formed when benzaldehyde (c6h5cho) is treated with ph3p═chcooch3.

8_murik_8 [283]

This reaction is known as Wittig Reaction. A powerful reaction for the synthesis of Alkene. In question the starting materials are aldehyde and a Phosphorous Ylide. Ylide when reacted with aldehyde produces a four membered ring which on rearrangement gives Alkene and triphenylphosphine oxide. Phosphorous having great affinity toward the oxygen is the driving force of this rearrangement. The reaction along with product (highlighted blue) is as follow,
